Elevated interest rates have weighed on loan growth and consumer spending this year, while also increasing fears of borrowers defaulting on their loans.

After a typical skittish first-day reaction, world markets are on Thursday embracing the new Federal Reserve stance as insurance on the holy grail of a soft economic landing. Fed boss Jerome Powell described Wednesday's outsize half-point interest rate cut as a 'recalibration' rather than some panicky emergency, and investors are taking the move as a sign the Fed will seek that new 'neutral' quickly without necessarily being forced into it by a weakening economy. There was only one dissenter - Fed governor Michelle Bowman - who clearly felt the economy only needed a quarter point cut.  ( 82 min )

Investors who anticipated furious market swings following the U.S. Federal Reserve's bumper rate cut saw more of a muted reaction.

One of the most consequential Federal Reserve meetings in recent history has put investors’ focus squarely on one question: whether the central bank has kicked off its rate cutting cycle in time to keep the economy from slowing too rapidly. The Fed delivered a 50 basis point rate cut on Wednesday - lowering borrowing costs for the first time in more than four years - and assured investors the jumbo-sized reduction was a measure to safeguard a resilient economy, rather than an emergency response to recent weakness in the labor market. Bets on the size of the rate cut swung in the days before the meeting and were near an even split on Wednesday morning.  ( 82 min )

Policymakers see the Fed's benchmark rate falling by another half of a percentage point by the end of this year, another full percentage point in 2025, and by a final half of a percentage point in 2026 to end in a 2.75%-3.00% range. To go down 50 when you have both PCE and CPI annualized below target, there’s a ton of room to go lower here, combined with what I would call wobbly labor data, wobbly not terrifying.  ( 82 min )

The Federal Reserve has cut its benchmark interest rate from its 23-year high, with consequences for debt, savings, auto loans, mortgages and other forms of borrowing by consumers and businesses. On Wednesday, the Fed announced that it reduced its key rate by an unusually large half-percentage point, to between 4.75 and 5 percent, the first rate cut in more than four years. The central bank is acting because, after imposing 11 rate hikes dating back to March 2022, it feels confident that inflation is finally mild enough that it can begin to ease the cost of borrowing.  ( 84 min )

The owner and manager of the cargo ship that caused the deadly Baltimore bridge collapse recklessly cut corners and ignored known electrical problems on the vessel, the Justice Department alleged Wednesday in a lawsuit seeking to recover more than $100 million that the government spent to clear the underwater debris and reopen the city’s port. The lawsuit filed in Maryland provides the most detailed account yet of the cascading series of failures on the Dali that left its pilots and crew helpless in the face of looming disaster. The Justice Department alleges that mechanical and electrical systems on the massive ship had been “jury-rigged” and improperly maintained, culminating in a power outage moments before it crashed into a support column on the Francis Scott Key Bridge in March.  ( 83 min )

The Federal Reserve is set to cut U.S. short-term borrowing costs on Wednesday, a watershed moment that should start to ease some of the financial pressures everyday consumers have felt over the two and a half years that the central bank has battled with high inflation. The Fed, after 5.25 percentage points of increases between March 2022 and July 2023, is seen deciding between a quarter-percentage point cut in its key rate to the 5.00%-5.25% range, or a half-point reduction to 4.75%-5.00% to address rising worries about the cooling labor market. Whether it starts big or small, the central bank is widely expected to keep lowering rates to around 4.5% or even 4% by the end of the year, with more cuts in 2025.  ( 83 min )

Gold market bulls are locking in bullion prices surging to fresh records, with a milestone of $3,000 per ounce coming into focus, fired up by monetary easing by major central banks and a tight U.S. presidential election race. Spot gold reached a historic high of $2,572.81 an ounce on Friday and is on track for its strongest annual performance since 2020, with a rise of over 24% driven by safe-haven demand, due to geopolitical and economic uncertainty, and robust central bank buying. Gold could reach $3,000 per ounce by mid-2025 and $2,600 by the end of 2024 driven by U.S. interest rate cuts, strong demand from exchange traded funds and over-the-counter physical demand, said Aakash Doshi, head of commodities, North America at Citi Research.  ( 81 min )

Then former New York Fed President Bill Dudley, who remains highly influential, said at an event in Singapore that there's "a strong case" for a 50 bps reduction.  ( 80 min )
